Inui and Yanagi (the guy with eyes closed) are playing singles 3. When they were in elementary school they were one of Japans best doubles teams for their age, but Yanagi suddenly moved away one day. They both wanted to and knew (because of their data) that they would play eachother at singles 3.

both school end up with 2 - 2 ? so who won

BIG SPOILER for entire manga Rikkaidai game SO WATCH OUT

Spoiler:

In the Manga,
Mauri/Jackal defeated Kaidoh/Momo 6-1, Rikkai dominted alot more in the manga for D2
Yagyu/Niou defeated Oishi/Eiji 6-4, It was a really cool game. I cant believe that they didnt give Yagyu the same special move that he used in the manga, it was so much stronger then what they gave him in the anime.
Inui defeated Yanagi 7-6 (31-29), I think this was the only one that was mostly the same in the anime and manga. In the manga you got to see Inui's eyes too...hehehe.
Fuji defeated Kirihara 6-4....one of my most favorite manga games. Its gets so crazy at the end.

Ryoma vs. Sanada is still going at 1-0 Ryoma leads....but thats all about to change... sadly the anime is wayyy ahead of this part.

...AND if i remember correctly Naruto airs at 7 and PoT is at 7:30 on the same channel, and if one has an hour special, the other doesnt have an episode that week... soooo...can anyone verify if my guess of no naruto next week is correct. mwhahah

Wait, if this is so and the anime is way ahead of this part,

Spoiler:

does this mean that the entire match between Ryoma and Sanada in the anime is completely made up? Made up meaning it's completely different than the manga. I don't think that it's a huge big deal if the anime differs some from the manga as long as the outcome of the matches remains the same and there isn't a huge change in the plot. It's just that it would bother me if this match, Ryoma vs Sanada was made up, I mean, this is suppose to be the biggest match, here we have the MAIN CHARACTER vs. someone who totally crushed him.

I thought it was garbage how that guy can make the ball roll along the net or even hit the side posts... those would have to be the worse special abilities I've ever seen... the episode had the usual see-saw battle and the side commentary from everyone... but I found it surprising that Momoshiro and Kaidoh lost... it seemed like they were getting pumped up even more near the end of the match... but then Momoshiro's dunk smash went out... and then they lost...

in the manga, Rikkaidai dominated the whole match for doubles 2. Kaidoh was shut down for the whole match until momo injured himself the same way as in the anime, while they were already losing 0-5. Mauri is a genius, so he's allowed to have insane moves.

well...

Spoiler:

yes, the manga matches are soo much more insane. Its still unsure if they are going to have the same winners for the Ryoma/Sanada match as in the anime. The thing that Ryoma did at the end of the anime match, was something he used from the start of the same match in the manga....

Yanagi (inui's friend on Rikkaidai) is also a data player, so he predicted Seigaku's lineup and had Jackal (Mauri's partner) practice the boomerang snake to counter kaidoh's and to crush his spirit as well.

I'll probably just hang around until after Inui's match, since you said it was pretty much the same as in the manga and it's one of my favorites.

I don't mind filler arcs so much, where you can just delete the eps you know aren't supposed to be there, but when they start changing stuff around (change is a bad word, since the anime makers don't even know how things are supposed to be) it really bothers me, since I can never get the mangaka's vision animated.

My opinions of the anime hasn't changed much since I read the manga, I thought alot of the later eps of Prince of Tennis were pretty boring and mindless even before I found out they weren't in the manga. (Though I suspected it.)

I just saw episodes 120 and 121... Seigaku lost again.... the acrobatic guy pisses me off... and that guy with glasses has a pretty stupid technique... golf swing?! haha...

well.. it seems like it's gonna be Seigaku taking two straight singles matches by the way it's been set up with their losses in doubles... it would be so much better if they got swept in Singles 3... but I doubt it will end up that way... at least I finally get to see that guy with his eyes closed play... hopefully, he doesn't have stupid special technique...

That match begins in 122? Sounds great, it's the only thing worth waiting for by the sounds of things to come (keeping in mind I much prefer the manga storyline, non-manga-readers might like whatever is in store).

PoT is a great series, but sometimes in matches involving ryoma, when hes losing 5-0, and he suddenly comes out of nowhere to win, makes me think " oh, comon, give me a break". other than that its is a great series. I actually prefer anime to their respective mangas, so it doesn't really matter that much if the anime isn't exactly identical to the manga

Renji didn't seem as great as I imagined him to be... he just did what many others have done in the past and that's break Inui's data tennis... I was expecting something better than breaking data tennis... I know the match just started... so maybe he'll bust some crazy techniques in the next episode...

I've mentioned before in this thread that Inui's data tennis is flawed... and thankfully, his character develops in a good way in this episode... I really like how he has tossed his old system away... that gigantic shot he did was crazy... I like how this match is shaping up...
